That’s the blunt warning a group of prominent religious leaders is sending to the Supreme Court of the United States as they consider same-sex marriage.

“We respectfully warn the Supreme Court not to cross that line,” read a document titled, Pledge in Solidarity to Defend Marriage. “We stand united together in defense of marriage. Make no mistake about our resolve.”

“While there are many things we can endure, redefining marriage is so fundamental to the natural order and the common good that this is the line we must draw and one we cannot and will not cross,” the pledge states.

“We’re sending a warning to the Supreme Court and frankly any court that crosses the line on the issue of marriage,” Staver told me.

He said that once same-sex marriage is elevated to the level of protected status – it will transform the face of society and will result in the “beginning of the end of Western Civilization.”

I love it! Finally the church makes a stand! This is what cultural push-back is all about. Think about it. The Supreme Court has justices who are put in place by either conservative or liberal administrations. In other words do we really think Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg won’t vote for gay marriage? Of course she will, as will Justice Sotomayor. The court is a stacked deck and like much of government it is manipulated by those who have a political ideology to uphold and promulgate.

The Supreme Court like Congress needs to be overhauled, as Justices are appointed for life and this means that once someone is selected and approved by Congress, they’re ideology is in place and thus if they are conservative or liberal they will most likely vote along those lines for the duration of their service.

This is the problem. Congress makes a big deal when someone is nominated to the Supreme Court. They essentially grill the person with hours of questions, and the media covers the proceedings. However, the persons core values, their paradigm remains in place long after the grilling is over. This is why the court splits along conservative or liberal lines, in a five to four split, on many issues.

It amazes me that we hear every detail about Bruce Jenner and his upcoming surgery but we don’t know how many of our soldiers were killed in Afghanistan or Iraq. Shame on the State controlled MEDIA!

Marriage between one man and one women is, in my opinion, the bulwark of western society. It remains the foundation of our culture. Polygamy, pedophilia, and gay marriage are not accepted nor should they be. While there is a segment of society that will look at the above statement and call me a homophobe, what are they defending? Why do most Americans agree that marriage is sacrosanct and is between a man and a women, not a union between Steve and Bob, or Jill and Kate.

In closing todays post. There is a time for push-back and I love the fact the church is waking up and drawing a line in the sand. While I do not believe in violent protest, like we see in Baltimore and Ferguson, there is a time for civil disobedience. There is a time to say that we will not adhere to laws that go against the core principles of what many of us hold dear. I hope the Justices are getting the message.

Note! Thanks to everyone who came out to the conference last night! The room was packed and I yacked for over three hours. Thanks to Chad & Karen, Jesse & Jennifer, Jason & Misty. Great to see Bob & Joan and Paul & Paula!

On April 28, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on whether states have the right to determine their own definition of marriage, or whether the Constitution requires all 50 states to make same-sex ‘marriage’ legal. Two members of the U.S. Supreme Court, both viewed as potential swing votes on the right of same-sex couples to marry, raised doubts about California’s same-sex marriage ban on Tuesday as they questioned a lawyer defending the ban.

Summary

Floralia

Calendar

Roman

Date

Apr 28 Every year

Description

The Floralia, also known as the Florifertum, was an ancient Roman festival dedicated to the goddess Flora. It was held in late April through early May and symbolized the renewal of the cycle of life, marked with dancing, drinking, and flowers. The Floralia was on the IV Kalends May. Dedicated to Flora, the goddess of flowers and vegetation, this day was considered by the prostitutes of Rome to be their own. While flowers decked the temples, Roman citizens wore colorful clothing instead of the usual white, and offerings were made of milk and honey to Flora.

First off. interesting how April 28th is the day the Supremes are going to hear arguments for gay marriage!

There are nine supreme court justices on the highest court in the land. These nine people weighed in on Roe v Wade—the landmark abortion case—and abortion became the law of the land. Since that fateful decision in 1973, millions of babies have been killed in their mother’s wombs. The total world-wide is now well over 1 billion! In my opinion, blood is on the hands of this justices on the Supreme Court, who made that decision.

Now, a different group of men and women will decide about gay marriage—the current nine justices. In other words, nine people will tell the rest of us, what will be legal. Shocking isn’t it?

It’s time for the church to stand up and cry out loud and clear that marriage is between one man and one woman, period. This may be the last stand for the church. We caved on the abortion issue. When Superbowl Sunday happens we gather in homes and watch the half-time occult spectacles and the following Sunday not a word is said about it from most pulpits.

The church hides behind its 501-C3 status and thus is a paper tiger.

When the movie The Last Temptation of Christ came out decades ago, the church rallied and protested. That was decades ago….

If the Supremes vote in favor of Gay marriage I believe it will be another sign that America is doomed. We have lost our moral compass, our ability to discern between what is right and what is wrong.

While the Middle East is imploding, and WWIII is at our doorstep, our media focuses on Bruce Jenner—we need to pray for him.

Will the pastors stand up in their pulpits this coming Sunday and warn the folks of what is transpiring in the highest court in the land, or will they deliver another feel-good-Jesus-loves- you-sermon?

In closing todays post. Gay marriage is an open challenge to what I believe the majority of Americans view as immoral. Nine people will decide what we are to accept as law. Nine people who have been put in a position of authority will tell us what we should believe and embrace. Nine people. If they decide to make Gay marriage legal, it is a direct affront to what Christians believe. Even though there are segments of the Christian church who embrace gay marriage, the mainstream evangelical community is against it, period. Time for the church to take a stand or become completely irrelevant and lukewarm.

One last word. We are to reach out in love to those who are gay, not condemn them or disparage them. We are to pray for them and love on them, while not accepting their lifestyle. The Gospel—the good news of Yeshua—can transform lives. I’ve witnessed this and know of gays who after meeting Yeshua, abandoned their lifestyle. Check out the mission statement of Desert Stream Ministry. (See below)

Based on the biblical foundation of compassion, integrity, and dependence on God, Desert Stream/Living Waters Ministries proclaims to the world the transforming power of Jesus Christ. We equip the body of Christ to minister healing to the sexually and relationally broken through healing groups and leadership training for the local church.

ISIS THREAT REPORTED IN CALIFORNIA; OFFICIAL DENIES THREAT TO LAX

Recent weeks have seen renewed fears of ISIS infiltration into the U.S. across the Mexican border and through other ports of entry, as ISIS has encouraged terror attacks in the heart of western nations.

NOTE: Just a quick shout out to everyone who came out to the Memphis Conference. It was great to meet the folks! We’re now in Nashville and will speak tomorrow night—see below flyer—at a coffee-house! Seating is limited so if you’re interested in attending please get your ticket in advance. Hope to see you there. L.A.

It’s good to know that ISIL—Islamic State of Syria, Iraq and the Levant—are just a JV TEAM! It’s reassuring to realize that the guys in charge of our country understand the geo-political climate and acting in accordance with our constitution, are protecting our borders….NOT!

I have posted to many times on the porous-southern-border-issue to count, but as of this post in 2015 the FEDERAL Government has still not closed the Southern border, it remains porous. Those who have a will and desire to do so, can cross it and enter into our country illegally.

I recently spoke with someone who is in law enforcement, specifically in regard to narcotics and drug trafficking. We discussed the porous southern border, the drug cartels, the ongoing drug-related murders throughout Mexico, and Central America. He told me that law enforcement was aware of ISIL’s presence in Mexico, just miles from the US border. The threat is real but is being down-played by our media, instead we know everything there is to know about Bruce Jenner! (Pray for him)

Here’s something to think about. There’s been a lot of talk about JADE HELM, the so-called training exercise slated to happen this summer. Is it possible Jade Helm is an exercise based on INTEL that has informed our government that ISIL is set to create havoc throughout certain sections of the US?

The map to the left shows where the Jade Helm exercise will take place. Basically, it’s training in response for what might come across the southern border.

ISIL has committed genocide and continues its unmitigated rampage in Iraq and other areas of the Middle East and parts of Africa. They have destroyed antiquities, raped countless women, destroyed Christian churches, and killed thousands of innocent people. Now, they are just over our southern border.

The Saudi Arabian government is constructing a barricade to keep ISIL out. They apparently are taking ISIL seriously and they have the will to protect their borders.

I have posted here that the malls and schools in the USA are soft targets. In other words—God forbid!—it would take limited resources to create havoc in our country.

Those who fight for ISIL are committed Jihadist’s, as they are willing to die for what they believe. Being a martyr—dying for Allah—is what many of these misguided Jihadist’s strive to attain.

In closing todays post. I’ll go out on a limb here and state that Jade Helm and the threat of ISIL may be a deliberate manipulation to declare Martial law in the USA. In other words, there will be an event—ISIL creating havoc in several states at once, in a coordinated fashion. Then the response—to protect the US citizens—Martial law.

Of course what should have happened years ago is a border fence, like the Saudi’s are busy building. A secure fence on our southern border would keep the drug traffic, illegal aliens and now ISIL out of the country.

Shame on the Bush administration for not completing the fence. Shame on the Obama administration for allowing thousands of undocumented people across the border.

Russ Dizdar and I spoke on Friday night and also yesterday, at the Watchers Conference in Memphis. I want to take a moment to thank Janis and Vince Loeffler for hosting the conference as well as everyone else who made it possible! I will speak again Sunday afternoon at 3 pm. I head to Nashville directly afterward and will speak there tomorrow. We’re on the Trail!

The words above are prophetic. They point to the signs, at the end of days, which will lead up to the tribulation period—the seven years where the earth will be under the thumb of the Son of Perdition, or the Antichrist. At the end of those days The Rider on the White Horse, Yeshua/Jesus, along with the armies of heaven—who will be on flying white horses too—will return to earth and he will destroy the Antichrist and the False Prophet with the sword coming from His mouth. This scenario is SCI-FI at it’s best, except it’s a future reality!

Most of the modern church never talks about The Rider on the White Horse, or prophecy, yet the Bible—The guidebook to the Supernatural—is filled with prophetic imagery calling out, with great specificity, what will happen in the last days.

The headline above—with link to the article—is remarkable because it jibes with the prophecies of Yeshua/Jesus, who told us: There would be earthquakes in diverse places.

Go back two hundred years and we wouldn’t have known about the Nepal earthquake or how many people perished in it. Now, in modernity, the news of the temblor is flashed on our I-phones and all media at the speed of live.

In my opinion, we are living in the days that will lead up to the return of the King. We are seeing all the sings that we were told would herald the end of days. Think about it. There are wars and rumors of wars as nation—or different ethnicities—are against each other. We have famines and pestilence, volcanic activity, fish and animal die-offs, record drought, record rainfall, food prices are rising, and we hear rumors about the collapse of the petro-dollar or a global currency re-set. Greece is experiencing this now as savings accounts are being raided by the government, just like what happened in Cyprus, several years ago.

The world is looking for a savior. Obama appeared as the savior to many people, who voted for him, and these disillusioned folks believed he would change the world. He changed it all right, and unemployment is through the roof, as well as racial tensions, food prices, thousands of executive orders, Obamacare, higher taxes, an 18 Trillion dollar debt, and now the specter of Jade Helm. (More about this tomorrow)

In closing todays Bun: I believe we are in the last of the last days. We are nearing a tipping point and at some point in time an event will happen which will set up the last 7 years. Middle East war? Dirty nuke? Live nuke? EMP on American soil? It’s coming down and the church, for the most part, remains irrelevant and asleep. The King is returning soon. We should be on fire proclaiming this every chance we get; The Rider on the White Horse with the armies of heaven coming to rid the earth of the evil system that has enslaved mankind….Maranatha!

In closing todays post. Volcanic activity with threat of a super volcano erupting, ongoing earthquakes in diverse places, UFO sightings—real, burgeoning and not going away—global financial instability, record drought, record snow fall, fish and animal die-offs, the blood moons, famines in Africa, AIDS in Africa, racial tensions, the rise of antisemitism, transhumanism and genetic manipulation, and on and on it goes.

Each person has to come to grips with what is going on. Are all these signs the new normal? Is the church so asleep that, for the most part, it pretends none of this is going on? Are these the signs that herald His second coming? I believe we are in the last of the last days. The signs are all around us. WAKE UP! When you see these things begin to happen look up…. Yeshua 30 AD

HOURSE CLEANING! A big thanks to John Ben John, pastor Matt and everyone else who made the Northeast Prophecy conference the success it was! Great to see Russ Dizdar and Doug Hamp and share the platform with these two men of God! There’s already talk of doing it again in 2016…. is we’re still here!

Israeli is between a rock and a hard place. As I have posted here ad nauseam, she is surrounded by enemies who pose a direct existential threat to her. Hezbollah in the north, HAMAS in the south, Iran in the East, and ISIL, who once again committed the unthinkable over the weekend, by beheading Christians for no other reason than they were Christians.

Let’s face the facts. Obama and perhaps many of those in his administration are no friend of Israel. While Obama may declare his deep friendship with the Jewish state, his actions prove otherwise. So while we are attempting to make a pact with a den of vipers, Iran continues its terrorist ideology by gathering in the capital and chanting death to Israel, death to America. http://www.timesofisrael.com/iran-marks-army-day-with-cries-of-death-to-israel-us/

I suppose John—swift-boat Kerry—somehow doesn’t believe that the Iranians are saying what they mean and meaning what they say.

I pointed out last week, that Israel will have no choice but to go to war, to cut the head off the snakes that pose a direct threat to her existence. The die has been cast, the writing is on the wall, Israel has been thrown under the bus and she will have to stand on her own to ensure the safety of her people.

The situation in the Middle East is perhaps the most unstable I have ever seen as Yemen, Syrian, and Iraq are all places where people are being killed in war.

In closing todays post. The prophecies we read in our Bibles point to a time such as this. With he sale of the Russian S-300 missile system the Israeli’s are being forced into a corner, they will have to act and most likely will do so soon.

1. Israel has been gathered from the four corners of the earth and reestablished in her ancient homeland.
